Re: CV and mad panic behaviour

The point of this missive is that there was one inoculation (vaccination) where every one had a test for tolerance... a tiny injection under the skin of the forearm (underside) to test reaction (think it was smallpox, maybe TB). If a small watery blister came up in a few days you would good to go for the major injection. If not, you were discharged as the major injection would be very problematic. I wonder if a tiny, test dose could be used for Covid variants and other future nasty viruses to ascertain some level of suitability?
The anti-vaccine / anti-lockdown apparatchiks should be complaining about the political indifference to the warnings that science has been broadcasting for 20 years!
If the politicians had taken note and funded the basic research back then lots of the issues would have been known in advance and I dare say many of them resolved or strategies enacted to deal with the adverse reactions rather than having to do this in retrospect, because the scientists know there will always, always be adverse reactions. Even so perhaps they might have halved the potentially vaccine related deaths from 13 to 6, 13 deaths the politicians probably coldly write off as a cost of war!
The irony is not lost on me that the anti-everything / anti-anything groups use the potential vaccine related deaths of 13 here in Australia to argue against action to fight a virus that killed 10,000 and has permanently maimed / injured 100s of thousands, there are at least 10 long term injured for every death. The anti's seem oblivious to their contradiction!
